Banana Chips

Description

Banana chips. Its also called as naendrapazha chips. In Nagercoil we can get this chips even in street side shops. Very tasty and crunchy. If you want less spicy adjust the chilli powder according to your taste.

Ingredients
2 nos	Unripe plantains(naendram vazhakai
	Oil for deep frying ( can go for coconut oil for best result and aroma) but i tried with vegetable oil.
½ tsp	Salt (can decrease or increase depending on your taste)
½ tsp	Chilli powder(can decrease or increase depending on your taste)
½ tsp	Turmeric powder
½ cup	Curd

Instructions

Step 1:

Peel the plantains, using a knife cut the banana into half and soak it in curd for few minutes. I say half an hour just to remove serum. So now you will have 4 slices of banana.

Step 2:

Heat the oil in a pan. Keep the flame very low.

Step 3:

Using a slicer just slice one of the banana slices. When the oil is hot put a pinch of turmeric powder into it followed by the banana slices. Deep fry it till it turns golden brown color. (It took more than 4 minutes to fry each batch. Allow it to cook till it become crispy). Place the chips in a bowl lined with paper towel. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and chilli powder to it and toss it well.

Repeat step 3 for remaining 3 banana slices.

Note:

I used the slicer which is attached to the grater http://www.amazon.com/Pedrini-Black-Stainless-Pyramid-Grater/dp/B0000959EV/ref=pd_bbs_sr_4?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1199841835&sr=8-4

Step 4:

Finally toss it well and allow it to cool for 5 mins. After that save it in an air tight container. You can store this for more than a week.
